I am absolutely the last one to be obsessed with fashion.  In fact, if you ask me, “what’s in style for men these days,” I’ll give you a blank stare.  Who cares?  (Sorry to offend anyone who does.  I don’t.)<\/span><\/p>\n

Anyway, I occasionally come upon some great boot finds.  A couple weeks ago, I found a great deal for a pair of dark grey Lucchese Classic cowboy boots<\/a> which will be great for my new workplace. <\/span><\/p>\n

I’ve always liked grey cowboy boots.  Back in my early work career at a University, a couple of students showed up for a meeting, both wearing grey cowboy boots.  Man, I couldn’t take my eyes off those boots!  I got myself a pair, and subsequently have almost worn them out.  <\/span><\/p>\n

As I surfed around looking for an affordable pair of grey cowboy boots, I discovered this pair of Lucchese ostrich cowboy boots<\/a> that looked grey in the photo, but the color on the listing was called “anthracite.” <\/span>
<\/span>
Anthracite?  What’s that?  Oh yeah, it’s a form of coal.  I looked it up on line, and the natural rock is grey.  I even sent a message to the company selling the boots, and their response was the same, “it’s grey.”<\/span><\/p>\n

So, “anthracite” is the new “grey” for boots.  Just so ‘ya know … particularly for the more fashion conscious among ‘ya.<\/span><\/p>\n

Life is short:  wear boots!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
